I make design boards a lot. You've seen a bunch of them here. Several years ago, I settled on Olioboard as my go-to, and for the most part I love them.

A couple of months ago, I was contacted by an old friend who works for Morpholio. They were launching a new app, Morpholio Board, and wanted some designers to take it for a spin. While olioboard is a web-based app that runs in flash and doesn't work on a tablet, Morpholio Board was built for the ipad. I played around for a couple of days and found it SUPER intuitive (and I am not a natural where tech is concerned.) Populating boards and manipulating products and layers is super simple. Right now, their library of products skews decidedly modern, and I had a lot of fun playing with brands I don't often use. You can also import images of products and build your own library (which is much like Olioboard.) Here are some of the boards I came up with:

Fun, right? The ability to "cut out" an object is impressive, and the layers are really quite seamless. There are tons of other features on the back end that are pretty robust, like the ability to export a product list for your clients.

This isn't meant to be a review--just sharing a new tool (and some creative work made with it) that some of you might enjoy.

About Me

Hi there.
I am a Minneapolis-based decorator and mother to two excellent girls. Though I work full time in this industry, I'm still a pretty big fangirl of all things interiors. Frankly, my family and friends can only take so much, so this is where I get into the nitty gritty to an unreasonable degree. Luckily the like-minded abound on the internet. I'm so glad you found me.
